Team TAG took several top leaders and partnered with the Boys & Girls Club of Venice. Held at the Hustler Casino, the purpose of the poker tournament was to raise money towards the engaging program for youth, Junior Staff. Junior Staff is a professional program that was developed to assist at-risk-teens with discovering their career paths. Thanks to the Poker players and Team TAG's volunteers, the event was a huge success.
With the help of Team TAG, the Boys and Girls Club was able to raise a total of $21,629, an increase from last years Charity Poker Tournament. Danielle Chi, director of events for B&G asked our representatives to help raise more money towards Junior Staff. Not only did Team Tag energetically greet poker players at the registration desk, the team, led by Stefanie Tringhan encouraged sells of tickets for a Kobe signed basketball and a bike raffle.
Team TAG also participated by playing in the Poker Tournament and buying raffle tickets. Team TAG would like to thank those who participated and contributed to Junior Staff: Jeremy West, Blake Wilson, Tariq Shaikh, Maria, Mirza Ulasoglu, Aykut Eren, Andrew Barkman, Bryn Dudkowski, Michael Schuessler, and Sam Chen.
This event was one of many events that Team TAG volunteers in. Team TAG takes pride in being part of a community that gives back.
